Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Get in gear with the Vertigo High backpacking boot from Kayland. This durable design features a unique cocona technology which uses the fibers of coconuts inside the boot's fabrics for pore structure to be the best (and most natural) moisture-absorbent qualities, a deeply-tractioned vibram outsole for tromping over rough surfaces, and an extended lace-up front to stabilize your ankles.

Product Description

The Kayland Men's Vertigo High Boots give you solid support when you scramble up a scree-covered slope or slog through mud and snow while carrying a 55-pound pack. This former winner of the Backpacker Editors Choice Award features eVent waterproof breathable insert so your feet stay dry during stream crossings, on glaciers, and in wet weather. Cocona lining wicks sweat and soaks up foot funk. Rocker bottoms on the these Italian boots encourage your feet to stride naturally, and internal padding helps stabilize the ankles and locks the heels down. Kayland extended the lacing all the way to the toes to ensure a precise fit. The Vertigo High's IADS (Integrated Absorbing Drive System) absorbs shock during heel strike, provides torsional stability so you're less prone to turning an ankle, and propels you forward when you push off with the balls of your feet at the end of your stride.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great boot!!!, June 19, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Kayland Men's Vertigo High Backpacking Boot (Apparel)
I bought these boots for hiking/ light mountaineering in central Alaska, where it's very wet, sometimes with miles of swampland, and so far these boots are awesome for everything I've used them for. Would definitely recommend them!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Comfortable, great color, traction and fit, December 27, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Only problem is: the rubber lugs near the heel have separated from the cushioning foam on one boot. The sole rubber is pretty high quality, so it flaps and is tearing a bit, but the lugs have not fallen off yet.

I tried a half-assed job of cleaning the boot and re-gluing the sole together with bike tire vulanizing cement. Came apart again very quickly.

These boots are so sweet, hovever - I continue to use them in the condition they are in. I will pay a cobbler to repair the sole, definitely will be worth it. I got a really good deal on the price for these.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gr8 buy, December 2, 2011

Hatatitla "Winnetou" (Silver Lake, NM, USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
There is hard to comment products like this. This is not something what we buy blind. I was fishin' for gr8 deal and finally showed up $110 this boots and my size. I took 'em little bit afraid about size. Some folx say it feels smaller. I wear everythin' one size and double EE if possible. I have really massive foot with high arch. It fits. It will take few walx 2 got 'em fit perfectly but I feel comfortable. Boots are side strong lessen posibility to twist ancle by slip on rock or tree root. High-end quality and purpose.
